Help! Cake For Sat.

I am covering a cake with pastry pride (couldn't find Rich's bettercreme) and the recipe calls for a package of pudding mix and milk. If I use the pastry pride instead of Rich's can I still add the flavoring and milk or will it destroy the whipped topping? Ug I sould have thought of this sooner

I have used Pastry Pride in place of Rich's Betterecreme. I havn't used a recipe that calls for mixing pudding mix in it but I believe you will get the same result. Rich's & Pastry Pride are the same in consistincy it is just the flavor that is different.
